Question

I am using a plugin for Grails – the Amazon S3 plugin – and the domain object provided by the plugin doesn’t specify the Id Generator. I am using Postgresql and require the id genrator to be identity.

I could copy the plugin in my plugins directory and mess with the domain object provided but that doesn’t sound like a clean approach.Could I add the correct id generation at runtime? Or maybe there is a better way.

If you are using 1.2, you could provide a default mapping for all your GORM classes, including generator.

grails.gorm.default.mapping = {
   id generator:'sequence'
}

See more in 1.2 release notes.
